frozen treats


What could be better than sitting on an iceberg sharing a frozen treat with someone you love?

I did this for a greeting card a while back and figured I'd post it since it fits this week's Illustration Friday topic. I'll be swamped with work for the next few weeks so I figure it's a good time to post some older stuff.

You would think that in such a cold environment, the last thing these guys would want to eat is ice cream. They seem to be enjoying themselves though, so what the heck do I know!

Great work Michael.
